*()f the two types the bench terrace
Is touch the older. -The ridge terrace
has come .Into general use only during
the last 25 years. Bench terraces for
agricultural purposes were used by
the ancients of Europe, Asia and South
America. The ancient Peruriani In.
'South America terraced the steep
slopes of mountains, the, walls of the

Wells cnnnbt be located In all cases
so that there may not be snmp pollu-
tlo&r-but the great safeguards are clean
ground and asjxide separation as'pos
sible from the probable channels of
any,impure drainage. It is not enough
that a well or spring be 50. 100 or 150
feet from a source of filth or merely
upon higher ground, although even
moderate remoteness and elevation of
the source of supply nre desirable.
Given porous or gravelly ground, seamy
ledge, or long-continued pollution of
one plat of land, the zone of contam
ination Is likely to extend long dis
tances, particularly In downhill direc
tions, and at such times as water sup
plies are lowered by drought or heavy
pumping. Only when the surface of
the water-in a well or spring Is actu
ally at a higher level at all times than
any near-by source of filth is there pos
itive assurance of safety.

The bench terrace Is usually *bullt
with the reversible hillside 'plow by
which the soil Is slwsys'ihrown down
the hill. This Is done for s number
of years until the bench becomes level
or the slope of the bench Is slightly
reversed. A ridge’ of earth Is kept at
the outer edge of the bench to prevent
the surface water from running from
one bench to the next bench below.
Bench terraces should he lpvel; that
Is, they should have no fall alopg-the
direction of their length. Before the
bench between the terrace embank
ments Is made level by plowing the
null down the slope the surface wa
ter Is held above the shoulder at
the outer side of the bench. I'nrt of
the water may move off slowly to the
ends of the terrace and the rest will
either sink Into the soil or evaporate.
A- heavy sod should he kept on the
shoulder and embankment to prevent
erosion should the shoulder be over
topped due to heavy rain. ^
When a bench terrace ls-ftest start
ed, the shoulder should be built about
one foot high and three feet wide at
the base. These dimensions can he re
duced some as th«i leveling down of the
bench proceeds. When the bench has
become level It Is only necessary to
maintain a small shoulder about one-
half foot high at the quter side of the
bench. ' This will- prevent, possible
damage to the terrace due to an exces
sively heavy rain.
The distance between the terraces Is
governed by the vertical distance or
dfop aiid hot by the distance along the
surface of the ground. The distance
along the surface of the ground will
be different for different slopes of the
land where the same vertical distance
between the terraces is used.
The proper drop or vertical distance
between bench terraces depends large
ly on how much care end attention Is
given to the terraces, the greater the
drop the- more care required. The
greater the drop the higher will he the
embankment, and It Is much more diffi
cult to maintain a hleh than a low- em
bankment. The best- practice Indi
cates that the drop between bench ter
races should never he less than three
feet nor more than six feet, although
a drop of eight feet has been used
successfully on steep slopes where the
terraces are carefully maintained.
